Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Yes, Officer, a server farm.
This has actually happened a few times now. Police raiding bitcoin miners homes because they think its a grow house.
My favorite is the cop baiters. It's illegal to use IR to identify grow houses in whatever state they operate in, so they aluminum foil the heck out of a house and crank the heat so it stands out. When the police come in based off a nonexistent anonymous tip, they're basically caught breaking the law red handed.
Can't find the video but I'll keep looking.

I've seen that they also called in an anonymous tip about the house, which in itself is not enough for a warrant but the cops raided anyway.
This seems like a terrible idea. Even if you're not committing any crime why would you want cops to pay attention to you?
They did it to expose the cops performing illegal searches.
I get why they did it, but I'm not bringing cops to my door as a gotcha.
